april 20th, 1999, two students went on a rampage, killing 13 people and themselves at the school in littleton, colorado. that cold-blooded attack altered forever the way government officials, teachers, and parents view students, especially those who might be considered to be troubled in any way. dave cullen spent ten years researching and writing "the new york times" best seller "columbine" and he's here with me now, as we try to dig into this. dave, thanks for being with us. you were the first person i thought of, and this book is really the definitive guide for anybody who wants to get some kind of an insight, not just on columbine, but on this horrible trend, i hate to say. but we've certainly had a lot of them. we instinctively want to profile these kids. we want to somehow brush them with a similar stroke, something that will make us feel like maybe we can get ahead of this. is that not doable? >> it's not. there were two definitive studies done after columbine, one by the fbi, one by the secret service. both exhaustive, really amazing studies. they both came to a lot of the same conclus
